          Original standard container code comes from <a href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/" target="_top">SGI
          STL library</a>, which enhanced the original HP STL code. Most of this
          code was rewritten for <span class="bold"><strong>Boost.Interprocess</strong></span>
          and moved to <span class="bold"><strong>Boost.Intrusive</strong></span>. <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">deque</span></code> and <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">string</span></code>
          containers still have fragments of the original SGI code. Many thanks to
          Alexander Stepanov, Meng Lee, David Musser, Matt Austern... and all HP
          and SGI STL developers.

          Howard Hinnant's help and advices were essential when implementing move
          semantics, improving allocator support or implementing small string optimization.
          Thanks Howard for your wonderful standard library implementations.

          fixing and reviewing all my libraries.
